When the subordinates and ladies who were guarding the palace heard that Geng Jimao had woken up, almost all of them were secretly relieved, and some were extremely disappointed. At this moment, everyone's thoughts are very complicated, and those who want to take a step forward are looking forward to Geng Jimao's death, and a group of old people in the Houfu will be removed, and then they can take advantage of the situation to make up for it. Those who breathed a sigh of relief were all the subordinates who usually waited by the old prince and princess's side, and they were afraid of being implicated in this matter, which was also human nature. But whether disappointed or happy, they must appear to be ecstatic.

Hearing that Geng Jimao's first request after waking up was to go out and ride a horse, everyone was stunned, and only the old princess outside knew what Geng Jimao wanted to do. The old princess's body also collapsed, lying on the sickbed, and when she heard the news, she also struggled to let people help her to go to the back garden racecourse. This horse farm is located at the back of Gengwangzhuang, the area is not small, and there are 60 good horses. Except for the guards who rode in the past, the others were used for messengers. Geng Jingzhong and Geng Jimao have not come to this backyard horse farm for a long time, and they are still the same as when they were just built.

In the Jingnan Palace, the words of the King of Jingnan are the holy decree, no matter what the King of Jingnan wants to do, the people are not qualified to oppose it. In the afternoon, the sun was shining, and Geng Jimao came to the racecourse under the escort of a group of guards, followed by a full of attendants. Healers, pharmacists, maids, etc., carrying medicine chests, spittoons, small stoves, small casseroles, etc., are very well prepared. If Geng Jimao fell down again at this moment, they could also be alert and rescue immediately.

Geng Wangzhuang back garden horse farm. It was originally a farmland. Geng Jimao inherited the title of King of Jingnan. After being stationed in Fujian. Taking the opportunity of "moving the town", he built a large area of land to build a palace. On the ground in the southeast of Fuzhou, there are thousands of houses, and 300 acres of farmland were bought in the vicinity to build the palace. The encircled house was not without silver at that time, and the reward for the large room was eight taels of silver, and the middle was six taels. Four taels of small rooms. Ten taels per acre of pastoral land. The inhabitants were immediately evicted and were not allowed to return. Therefore, the location of the palace of Jingnan Wangfu was called "Geng Wangzhuang", referred to as "Wangzhuang", until the 21st century in later generations.

In this racecourse with a length and width of hundreds of meters, Geng Jimao is in an extremely good mood. It's as if I'm back to when I was a child, and all the things I used to have in front of me quickly come to mind. The carriage stopped at the edge of the racecourse, and the guards respectfully lifted the curtain of the carriage. Geng Jimao opened his cloudy old eyes, looked at the vast green grassland in front of him, and his godless and gradually lifeless eyes suddenly shone brightly, as if even his spirit was uplifted.

"Fu ...... Help me down. Geng Jimao trembled and stretched out his hand. The tone was a little excited. Geng Jingzhong, who was sitting in the carriage with Geng Jimao, hurriedly stretched out his hand, and together with the guard Gu Ping, he steadily supported Geng Jimao's trembling body. Geng Jimao, who got out of the carriage, continued to cough twice. Turning his head with difficulty, he said to Gu Ping beside him, "Go...... Bring a horse, this king, to ride. ”

Gu Ping is a leng, the prince is sick like this, why do you still have to ride a horse? So he hurriedly persuaded: "The prince is sick, it is better to recuperate and ...... again."

Geng Jimao's tone gradually sank, and he stared at Gu Ping impatiently: "I can't call you anymore?" Don't go yet! ”

Gu Ping gritted his teeth, but he didn't take a step, and continued: "Lord Wang, forgive your subordinates for not daring to obey your orders, and please take care of your body!" ”

Geng Jingzhong was also very reluctant, but when he saw Geng Jimao's complicated gaze, he still opened his mouth and said: "Uncle Gu, my father asked you to take it, you can go, this is my father's last wish!" ”

There was no way, Gu Ping had to bow down, and then turned around and ordered someone to choose a horse in the stable and lead it to the edge of the horse farm. Looking at the pure white, strong horse plowing the ground with the horse's hooves, and snorting lightly from time to time, the excitement in Geng Jimao's eyes became more and more intense.

"Zhong'er, Guping ......"

"Son in ......"

"The Last General ......"

"Help me get on the horse!" Geng Jingzhong pointed to the horse in front of him and said.

Gu Ping raised his head in astonishment and glanced at Geng Jingzhong, Geng Jingzhong nodded at him helplessly, and then his eyes turned red, and tears couldn't stop flowing. "Yes!" So the two of them supported Geng Jimao's legs one after the other, and helped the weak Geng Jimao to the saddle with difficulty. Geng Jimao sat on the horse, looking at the land that belonged to him in front of him, and a familiar feeling arose.

Geng Jimao is also up and down at the moment, he has followed his father Geng Zhongming to fight in the east and west since he was fourteen years old, and decades have passed. He has fought the Mongol Tartars, the Manchu Tartars, the peasant army, the former Ming official army, and many innocent people. He has made a lot of military exploits for the former Ming Dynasty, and he has also made great contributions to the Manchu Qing Dynasty. His hands were stained with the blood of soldiers from all walks of life, and his heart was stirring when he thought of Geng Jimao. However, at this moment, there was a little confusion on his gray face.

was a young man in his prime, but now he is getting older, and in this life, whether it is right or wrong, it has nothing to do with him immediately. But if you think about it, what have you gained in this life? And what is lost? Geng Jimao, who sat on the horse for a long time and was speechless, his expression was full of confusion and pathos. Suddenly, he looked at his son Geng Jingzhong, and then laughed, and his vigorous laughter was infinitely light and free.

I'm old, but I still have such a capable son! Suddenly, he felt that everything he had done was worth it! People live just for the sake of future generations, they have left a good foundation for them, and it is up to them to create the future by themselves! The color of confusion was gone, Geng Jimao seemed to have recovered from his illness, his whole body was full of strength, his trembling fingers grasped the horsewhip steadily, and he jerked it back, the horse was in pain, and he pulled his feet and galloped towards the vast horse farm.

The old princess also came to the racecourse at this moment, and was shocked when she saw this scene, watching Geng Jimao running into the distance alone, as if there was incomparable tragedy in the desolation. Geng Jimao dragged the heavy sick body, only the whirring wind was heard in his ears, although his body was extremely weak, but his mood was extremely happy. The scenery in his eyes was rapidly receding, and at this moment, he seemed to hear the Jin Ge Iron Horse in his ears. The sound of swords clashing. In his eyes, he seemed to see the sword dance in the yellow sand. A tragic scene of blood-stained robes. So familiar, so agitated, it turns out that I, Geng Jimao, should belong to the battlefield!

After Geng Jimao returned to the house from the racecourse, he fell ill again and fell into a coma. A room full of famous doctors rushed to the rescue and exhausted all means, but they still did not wake him up. Geng Jimao had a high fever all over his body, and he was unconsciously talking nonsense in a coma. Geng Jingzhong was grief-stricken at the moment, and he fell into deep self-blame. On the third day when Geng Jimao was in a coma again, Geng Zhaozhong and Geng Juzhong, who stayed in the capital, finally appeared in the Jingnan Palace with two pairs of children.

They didn't care about watching the changes in Fujian, and rushed directly into the palace to see Geng Jimao's last face. It's just that Geng Jimao has completely fallen into a coma, and the doctors also advised others not to approach Geng Jimao's body at will, so everyone had to lie in the middle of the house, one and a half meters away from the bed. Look at Geng Jimao's appearance. Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong both have a son and a daughter, the eldest is four years old. But I have never seen what Geng Jimao looks like, at this moment, all the children and grandchildren gathered in the room, and several female relatives still wanted to cry, but they were also stopped by the old princess.

Although Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong are unlearned, they still have feelings for their father, that is, they have not seen each other in the past five or six years, which is also a last resort, and they are also clear. They didn't come back with Geng Jingzhong, the eldest brother, who had the intention of competing for the son, their eldest brother was shrewd and capable, and he was already the son of the world, and he had been operating in Fujian for many years. In fact, Geng Jingzhong has not been worried about this problem, but he is not worried, which does not mean that Li Guangdi and others are not worried. In the emperor's house, it is too common to fight for power, so Li Guangdi still filmed someone secretly paying close attention to the words and deeds of the two.

Geng Jimao was unconscious, lying motionless in the room, and the old princess was also moved to the same room. In the words of the old princess, even if he dies, he will also die with Geng Jimao. The three Geng Jingzhong brothers pushed out of the ward and came to the side hall together to wait for the results.

"Big brother, the body of my father" In the hall, Geng Zhaozhong sat down for a while, and then couldn't help but ask. Geng Juzhong also raised his head and looked at Geng Jingzhong.

"You two must have received a letter from me a long time ago, and my father's health has been getting weaker and weaker since he fell seriously ill four years ago. The dark wounds left over the years had caused great damage to his body. It is not easy for my father to survive to this day. However, in the past two years, under careful care, my father's body has slowly improved, but I didn't expect that this is just the appearance, but in fact, the inside is getting weaker and weaker, so it leads to today's situation! Geng Jingzhong said sadly. I don't want to do this at all.

"By the way, you're coming back pretty quickly this time. Kangxi didn't embarrass you, stopped you and didn't let you go back? ”

"No, when your recital arrived, the Holy One immediately allowed us to pack up and come back to see our father." Geng Juzhong then replied, not noticing Geng Jingzhong's words at all, he called the emperor a saint, but Geng Jingzhong directly called Kangxi, there is a world of difference between the two.

"Oh!" Geng Jingzhong answered without speaking. There was silence in the side hall again, and after some time, a healer ran over sweating profusely. The brothers were all shocked and couldn't help but take a few steps forward.

Geng Jingzhong grabbed the doctor's hand and asked urgently, "What happened to my father?" Woke up? ”

The healer looked up at the anxious expressions of the three Geng Jingzhong brothers, trembled unconsciously, and fell to his knees with a pale face in fright. "His Royal Highness the Prince forgives his sins, the little ones are incompetent, the prince is at the end of his life, I'm afraid it's ...... I'm afraid I won't be able to survive tonight! ……”

A room full of people heard the final verdict from afar, and couldn't help but be shocked, looking at each other, and all kinds of unspeakable feelings poured into everyone's hearts. Geng Jingzhong's tears flowed down his eyes, and Geng Zhaozhong and Geng Juzhong almost simultaneously raised their feet and kicked the healer a few times, roaring and crying: "You bunch of waste! My father's body has always been hard and tight, and you must have been careless in your healing! I...... I'm going to kill you! ”

The doctor was frightened, and kept kowtowing and begging for mercy. Geng Jingzhong saw that the love between the two younger brothers was out of control, so he grabbed their clothes and shouted in a deep voice: "Enough, what is the noise, isn't it messy enough?" Come with me and see my father! ”

Geng Jingzhong was just about to raise his feet and walk out, when he suddenly thought of something, so he asked, "My father didn't wake up at all?" ”

"The prince has woken up, if the three highnesses want to visit, please hurry up. I'm afraid it's ...... late," the doctor shuddered.

Inside the hospital room. The old princess was already crying silently. Leaned softly on the pillow, looking at Geng Jimao without blinking. Geng Jimao had also woken up, and he also looked at his wife, who was speechless. When the three Geng Jingzhong brothers came in together, Geng Jimao raised his eyelids and looked at them.

Geng Jingzhong's three brothers knelt on the ground and wept bitterly in front of Geng Jimao's sickbed. The two younger brothers on both sides are also crying sadly, they haven't seen their father for many years, this is the last meeting, and they will never see each other again! Geng Jimao had already woken up, and now he felt that the vitality in his body was rapidly leaving him, and soon, he was only a soulless shell, and he would be in the ground forever.

Looking at the three Geng Jingzhong brothers and the old wife opposite who were crying in front of the bed with tears, Geng Jimao felt a lot of reluctance in his heart. These are all concerns. Not long after Geng Jingzhong and the three of them came in, Geng Jimao's three little grandsons and two little granddaughters were under the leadership of Huan Xi and others. also came here, and the room burst into tears.

Stretching out a trembling hand, Geng Jimao lovingly stroked Geng Jingzhong's head, and then turned to touch Geng Juzhong Geng Zhaozhong's face, his chest rose and fell rapidly, his throat hissed, like a broken bellows, trying his best to breathe the last trace of air in the world. "Zhong'er, the Geng family will be handed over to you! You have to take good care of your two younger brothers, don't let them go back to the capital again......" Geng Jimao said intermittently with a smile.

"Yes, Daddy! You won't die, though...... A few of your little grandchildren are waiting to play with you! Quick, call a few little guys? Geng Jingzhong cried and said that a few little guys were not far away, and saw that several adults were crying, although they didn't know what grief was, but they also practiced loudly.

Geng Jimao touched a few little grandchildren one by one, and he was even more nostalgic for this world. After a long sigh, his eyes closed, and two lines of yellow old tears ran down his cheeks. Geng Jimao tried to support his body and wanted to sit up half-sit, but he didn't succeed, so he gasped and said weakly: "Okay, all the ladies in the hall go out, take Wenwen and a few people out, I have something to say to your three brothers." ”

Geng Jingzhong nodded with tears streaming down his face. When everyone behind him heard the order, they all quickly walked out of the room, and only the old princess remained here.

"In the current situation, boss, you know better than anyone that the imperial court and the three feudatories are close to tearing their faces, but as long as they don't tear their faces, you have to be respectful to him. You know, the rafters rot first. Wu Sangui's soldiers are strong and strong, so let him attract the attention of the imperial court. Now you still have to keep showing weakness and accelerate the accumulation of strength. When the court and Wu Sangui are inseparable, you will stand by and move. Ahem, ahem! As he spoke, Geng Jimao coughed violently a few times.

Geng Jingzhong choked and nodded. But at this moment, the two younger brothers beside him were dumbfounded, they didn't expect Geng Jimao to say such a thing. In fact, they were used to spending all day and drinking in the capital, and they didn't think about anything big at all. Therefore, they did not know anything about the current Fujian, and they did not know anything about the attitude of the imperial court. Kangxi treated the three feudatories very favorably on the surface, but he recently wanted to withdraw the feudal domains, and there were many rumors in the capital, but they were also suppressed by Kangxi, and the two brothers did not take it as true.

The rumors also said that it was the three feudatories who secretly rebelled, and it was already a big deal, so the imperial court wanted to cut the feudal domains, but it would still give a few families glory and wealth. The two brothers didn't know whether it was true or not, and there was no letter from Fujian, and Geng Jingzhong didn't express his opinion when he went to Beijing, so they didn't care, thinking that no matter what, there was still a tall man on top of the sky when the sky fell.

"Don't be surprised, you brothers, your eldest brother has already made all the preparations, and his skills are ten times stronger than your grandfather's. With your eldest brother here, you don't have to worry too much. But you two boys, if you don't learn and don't know how to stay in Fujian in the future, the first thing is not to cause trouble. Don't go back to the capital, once the court turns against the three feudatories, you will be in danger. Boss, you have to think of a way to exercise the two of them, and it will be a big help for you in the future. No matter how close outsiders are, they don't have their own siblings, do you remember? ”

"Hmm!" Geng Jingzhong nodded with teary eyes. Geng Juzhong and Geng Zhaozhong were also crying silently, and when the old father was dying, he was still thinking about them, which made them cry like rain.

After everything was said, Geng Jimao leaned on the head of the bed and slowly breathed a sigh of relief. Everything that should be said has been said, now, it is time for him to say goodbye, he smiled and looked at the old wife not far away, the old princess also looked at him generally, and neither of them spoke anymore......

Geng Jimao closed his eyes tiredly, he has been rich all his life, his children and grandchildren are full, and he is self-sufficient! Now, he can finally rest in peace. (To be continued......)
